message, he says: "There is GER
tainly urgent need for such revision
of the tariff as will remove its in
CAPABILITIES and antiquities, and so
simplify it generally as to prevent
the abuses so prevalent and hurtful
to the honest trader. There can be
such enlargement of the free list and
reductions in the dutiable schedules

Our business MisfOrtunes and
Business Prospects.

Business Prospects.
The past year has been unusually
prolific of business misfortunes to
our community.
The collapse of the Black Bottle
railroad enterprise and the compli-
cations of the Merchants National
Bank have been two of the most far
reaching and and calamitous events
that our business community has
ever suffered. There is no man in
business who has not, directly OF
indirectly suffered to some extent
from these disasters.
The consequence is that the bust
ness community closes the year under
certain degree of depression
Those who look only to the present
+ and do not take in the whole situa
ton are disposed to be very much
discouraged and hopeless for the flu
ture.
The present depression however
can only be temporary. Some per
sons have been seriously injured ant
will not speedily recover. 1t will re
quire time. And there are other!
who will succumb eventually to tn,
burden of their misfortunes aud will
go to the wall.
But as for the community at larg'
there is no cause for misgivings al
to the future. This town is in {
better condition, and enjoys NOR,
opportunities for lettering its condi
ton in business way than ever be
fore in its history.
Moreover, the Black Bottle enterpris,
is by no means dead. 1t is sure t.
be completed within the next two
years as the seasons are to come an(
90. 1t is destined to contribut,
more to the business prosperity O
our town and county than any enter
prise we have known. The Blacl
Bottle is now-like many other thing,
in Morgantown-unde cloud; blu
will boom forth with new SPLENDID
in the near future and with it also
the general business of our town.
Another prospect of business prof
is approaching us by way Of the F

of the coal mines and coke bushes

PR0HlBITlONISTS PUZZLED.

The National supreme Court Refuses to
Advance Liquor Cases-No More Ar
guments Wanted.
Washington, Oct. 24-The supreme
court made ruling in the Iowa liquor
cases to-day which is pnzzling both sides
of this important controversy. 1t denied
8 motion OF Lawyer Packard, OF Chicago,
who acts as attorney OF the prohibition.
tionists, to advance these cases on the
docket and hear argument on them.
This motion was for the purpose of
bringing in some new arguments on the
Kansas liquor cases which have been
closed and decision on which was
expected very soon, as heretofore said in
these dispatches. The prohibitionisss
are alarmed OF the outlook and want to
strengthen their cass. The chief Justice
announced that tho court denies this
motion. The question is Eow whether
| the court does not want to hear any more
from the prohibition side because it has
already agreed to decide in favor oi
| it, or whether it has reached
the conclusion that under the fourteenth
amendment to the constitution the state
closing breweries, etc, under the prohi-
Dition law, can only do so after the pro
| cess OF law, meaning condemnation oI
the premises and the payment of dam
ages. II is not ct sill impossible tina,
the court has determined to decide those
cases against the state OF Iowa. In

A Biemarck attorney interyiewe

A Bismarck attorney, interviewed in
St. Paul, unburdened himself. He said: /:
The fact is the Northern Pacific land
grant is the great Chinese wall which
retards growth and development in
north Dakota. Look at south Dakota
with her small farms and no land grant.
She is far ahead of north Dakota. You
ask the reason. Well, l'il tell you. In
the north every other section is railroad
land held by the company or some east
ern speenlator for a rise. The owner
does nothing to improve the land and
pays no taxes on 1t. Under the Traill
county case it is exempt from taxation
This leaves only heli of the land for
settlement and this latter half is occu-
pied by settlers who improve their land
and in 80 doing improve the adjacent
land of the selfish speeulator This same
settler has to pay So so per acre for his
land, simply because the railroad lie
given every other section, while in south
Dakota the settler pays only S125. Then
again, the settler is taxed on his horse
and COW and wagon, and every thing. He
ia compelled to bear the whole burden
tell yon the Northern Pacific land
grant is an Internal outrage on the bona
fide settlers.
This ia a situation we have been en-
deavoring for several years past to i'm
press upon the tax payers OF soath Da-
kota in our advocacy OF the proposition
to divide Dakota. The burden OF the
expense of maintaining the state will
fall upon the property owners OF
south Dakota, and this being
the case il Ia to
the interest of south Dakota taxpayers
toso arrange the boundary line as to get
what they pay for. As territory Dako.
10 has been cursed with Northern Paoi,
fic rnle and at the same time the people
outside the Northern Pacific belt have
been paying the expenses OF govern
ment managed by the Northern Pacific
corporation. We OF the Eouth do not
want this condition perpetuated in state
hood. There is now en- avenue OF escape.
Our taxpayers are to be given the oppor-
sunity to vote on the question OF divi-
sion on the Sth OF November and as they
vote 80 will the state be formed. North
ern Pacific territory covers one-half OF
the north halt Dakota. The proposition
to divide the territory on the seventh
standard parallel places all the Northern
Pacific domain in the state OF north Da-
kota and leaves south Dakota uninoum .
bered by the corporation which has
wrought SO much for evil in the history
OF the past.
